Hey everyone! I’m a little late to the party because I’ve been in the fight of my life trying to beat lung cancer but I’m very excited to announce that my THIRD book has been published!!!

It’s called The Pocket Guide to Prepper Knots. About a year ago, my publisher contacted me and asked if I would consider writing a book about knots that preppers might find useful.

Initially, they asked for a book with instructions for how to tie a lot of knots but I told them that the only way I would write the book was if it was a book that contained only my favorite multi-purpose prepping knots.Click here to read more of this article!

I recently received an interesting email from a company called Wiebe Knives asking me if I would be willing to do a gear review for them. I hadn’t heard about this company so I popped on over to their website to see what they had to offer.

It didn’t take me long to decide that I was intrigued and I quickly replied to the company saying that I would love to test their knives and review them on Preppers Illustrated.

I asked them to send me two of their knives to test and a couple of weeks later I received them in the mail. As you may already know, I don’t write reviews for products I don’t like and I won’t try to pull the wool over my reader’s eyes.Click here to read more of this article!

You get your oil changed every 3,000 miles, you go to your dentist on a regular basis to have your teeth cleaned and you go to your doctor for your annual physical but are you doing a good job of maintaining your food storage?

It’s quite common during uncertain times for people to jump on the prepping bandwagon and stock up on supplies only to neglect them shortly thereafter.

We saw this during the Y2K prepping frenzy. A perfect example during this time was when people who had never owned a generator flocked to the stores and cleaned off the shelves.Click here to read more of this article!

I have to admit that when I stumbled across this idea, I couldn’t believe that I hadn’t thought about it before now.

If you’re like most preppers, you probably don’t have endless resources when it comes to stockpiling prepping supplies. Oftentimes, as preppers, we go without the certain things that other people buy so that we can prepare for emergencies.
